Crude LerIslatIve Methods.

EDITOR CRITIC: II II be true, as has been
generally reported, that the Senate District
Committee, ut their last hurried meeting,
without seriously considering any Of the
other bills which were before them for q
cable or electric system for rapid transit
along existing street railways, straightway
agreed to report favorably the so-called
"Washington Cable Compapy's bill" and
Immediately afterwards proposed resolu-
tion, which has been adopted by the Senate,
authorizing the appointment Of q subcom-
mittee ITO investigate the subject Of steam
and street railroads for the District during
the recess'-it presents another illustra-
tion Of inconslderate and doubtful legisla.
tion during the closing days OF Congress!
!tmust be apparent that the adoption by
the committee and the Senate OF the resolu-
the recess to inquire into the steam aud
street railroad service in the District
is plain confession OF absolute Ignorance
on the part OF Congress Of existing facill-
ties, or Of any Intelligent comprehension
Of what, In the future, Is desirable In the
public interest In the way Of the introduce
tion OF the best method for securing the
most efficient rapid transit service. 1t is,
unfortunately, the too familiar story In
American politics: Legislation first, inresti'
CATION afterwards. The Euglish--as she is
wrote-of this partcul measure is, that the
twenty miles or more Of existing railroads
require einvestigation;b but the proposed thirty
or forty miles may be put down and operated
pretty much as the ipoorporators please.
